Chapter 451: What Happened Back Then
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“In order to avoid attention, Cui Zhanyi and Gu Meizhi brought Sui Yuan out of town back then and only returned after giving birth to Cui Na. Originally, Sui Yuan wanted Cui Zhanyi and Gu Meizhi to get a divorce. At that time, Cui Zhanyi did ask for a divorce, but just then, Sui Yuan got to know a rich young master from Beijing and abandoned Cui Zhanyi… In order to keep Cui Zhanyi and Gu Meizhi a secret, she gave the Cui family a large sum of money. The Cui family also used it to expand and develop..
“So my grandmother is Sui Yuan.” Le Yao touched her chin. “Then do you know which family she married into?”
“Yuan Bin obtained Sui Yuan’s photo and went straight to Beijing to investigate. Cui Li doesn’t know where she went either. I reckon there will be news soon.”
“Also, Cui Li said that when the Cui family and the Zhu family got married back then, they were actually talking about Cui Na and Zhu Dekun. However, Cui Li intercepted them and even colluded with Han Guosheng to scheme against Cui Na, forcing her to marry into the Han family…”
“Cui Li also said that Cui Na and Yan Cheng were actually a couple back then…”
Le Yao frowned for a moment, then felt relieved. This was because she had been thinking about this these days and had thought of all kinds of situations. What she lacked was evidence.
Now that Tao Qing had found the evidence, she did not have to hesitate.
Gu Meizhi was a cla.s.sic example of inviting a wolf into her house.
“By the way, there’s one more thing. When Du Juan found out that Cui Peng was keeping the two sisters, she brought her son back to her maiden home and proposed a divorce.”
“That uncle of mine is also very powerful.” Le Yao smiled. When they found out about this back then, she had asked them to quietly leak the evidence to that aunt. Now, it was just right.
“Cui Peng didn’t agree at first, but for some reason, he agreed later. The two of them officially went through the formalities yesterday.”
Le Yao nodded. ‘You’ve worked hard. Rest well for the next few days.”
“Young Lady, I want to help him.” Tao Qing’s expression turned slightly strange. “It’s said that the Young Master’s family is very powerful. I’m afraid that if… the two of them can take care of each other.”
Le Yao’s eyes flickered. Had these two developed feelings for each other over time? That was not bad, but she was afraid that it was this girl’s wishful thinking. That would be too hurtful.
However, it was not appropriate for outsiders to interfere in relationships. All she could do was matchmake them. She hurriedly nodded in agreement.
Tao Qing did not even stay for a night. He took the evening flight to Beijing that day, making Le Yao feel that a grown woman could not be kept.
In the next few days, Le Yao ignored Beichuan. Because school was about to start, the princ.i.p.al and Madam gave her a lot of homework to do. Therefore, even if she obtained evidence from the Cui family, she did not have time to do anything for the time being. She would do her homework first.
Nangong Jue naturally knew that Tao Qing had come over, so he quickly ran over, but he didn’t ask. He just sat at the side and watched her do the papers.
“Are you alright?” Le Yao took the time to look up at him.
“You know, I don’t have a job now. I’m very free.”
Le Yao rolled her eyes. “Only you believe that, right?” Anyway, she didn’t believe it. This man didn’t care about the Nangong family’s company at all. The original book said that he actually had his own business empire.. Otherwise, how could he afford to live in a mansion and hire bodyguards and chauffeurs?
